Connie Britton
An emerald-eyed actress who found her greatest success in television by way of feature films, Connie Britton was born Constance Womack on March 6, 1968, in Boston. She grew up in Virginia alongside her fraternal twin sister and later attended Dartmouth College, where she majored in Asian studies.

Upon moving to New York City, Britton studied at the Neighborhood Playhouse and appeared in off-Broadway fare. But her film debut -- and subsequent breakthrough -- would come courtesy of the critically acclaimed indie hit The Brothers McMullen (1995), in which she portrayed the wife of a philandering spouse.

Soon after, Britton landed a recurring role as a city hall number-cruncher on "Spin City" (1996-2000). She also played Billy Bob Thornton's wife in the big-screen football drama Friday Night Lights (2004) before signing on to the TV adaptation of the same name, for which she earned an Emmy nod in 2010.
